Dollar Store Find...A ColourArte Project

I used Primary Elements Artist Pigments, Primary Elements Clear Gloss Medium, and Radiant Gels Dimensional Paint from ColourArte products to paint feathers on electronic device covers, officially called "Tablet Sleeves."

Click here for the YouTube Tutorial Video
The covers are foam lined and I purchased them for $1.00 each at my local dollar store. Obviously they are intended for an Ipad or other tablet, but can be used for much more.
Think: Photos, sketchpads, pencils, watercolors, books, travel receipts, etc.

Enchanted

ENCHANTED Mixed Media on Canvas
A new box of goodies from the magical land of ColourArte.com appeared on my porch yesterday.
I think my Fairy Paint Mother delivered it!
Most of you are probably aware that I am one of the very first members of the ColourArte design team. (And very proud of that!) :-)
Yesterday was my first experience with powdered pigments that I mix myself to make my paints. Once I started, it was so difficult to quit. You can mix Primary Elements with any water soluable liquid to turn it into a liquid paint form. I played with water for a bit to make watercolors.
Just so happens that I had some Mod Podge on my studio desk when these arrived. So I spent the rest of the day, into the night experiementing with Primary Elements, Mod Podge, and water. This composition "magically" appeared over an old canvas that I did not like and painted under. I think I will keep it now!
As I painted I kept thinking, I should take some photos as I go, but I could not break myself from its mystic spell long enough to do so.
Needless to say, Primary Elements will become one of my staples in the studio, and I haven't even touched the surface of what they can do.
Oh my goodness.....I LOVE these pigments...so shimmery, and I can control the intensity!
